Power house options??

[Jodaddy]

Ok guys, my first car was a 80 Firebird love the thing to death, right now it sits on the side of my house with no engine. SO! this tax season im dropin a new power house in it. I wanted to go fuel injection, used that is, out of a wrecked vehicle, but that requires a sh!t ton of work. Im lookin for a relatively cheap engine, already have a turbo 350 tranny 4 it (i have an engine ive been building for it but im still bout 2500$ in the hole and wanna drive this thing one more time before i leave for the army). So im lookin for any suggestions. HELP! :biglaugh:
and i know its a chevy but hey man, it was my first car and i still love her!

im either lookin at an old LT1 or maybe a tbi 350 from like an old suburban and tahoe. not sure though anyone else have and suggestions?

the suberban ones are indesructable. guy visited my work the other day and when i asked him how many miles he said 320 K on the origonal motor. He said he was the origonal motor and has used z max since he bought it. Lol im now a believer in the stuff. And fyi he really did. i read the code on his truck when the motor light came on and it was having a misfire in one of the cylinders due to a coil but.. yah. shows what taking care of your shit does for ya.
